Politics / Project Mejọ by nigerianrevolut(f): 5:31pm On Aug 11
ASIWAJU'S GOVERNMENT-CONTROLLED PROTESTS CODENAMED PROJECT MEJỌ

8 is MEJỌ in Yoruba. 8 is Asiwaju's magic number that metamorphosed into the mysterious symbol on his signature cap. The 8th month was chosen for Asiwaju's government-controlled protests codenamed PROJECT MEJỌ.

Asiwaju knew that the EndSARS protests of 2020 began out of spontaneity. It was that spontaneity that made the EndSARS protests so powerful and hard to control by the ruling party. It was that EndSARS spontaneity that caught the Buhari government off guard. Asiwaju ended up as a scapegoat of that spontaneity losing the Lekki Toll Gate in the aftermath of the EndSARS protests till this day.

Asiwaju learnt a bitter lesson and would never allow his government to be caught off guard. Therefore, he read the angry mood of Nigerians and expertly planned 8 steps ahead by launching PROJECT MEJỌ.

Asiwaju's government paid some groups to announce an 8 days protest that would begin on August 1st to August 10th minus the two Muslim Fridays of August 2nd and August 9th.

PROJECT MEJỌ was designed to encourage Nigerians to express their fury and pent-up frustrations against the Asiwaju government during the government-controlled protests of August. PROJECT MEJỌ was designed to neutralize the threat a full-blown revolution that Asiwaju's political analysts warned could spark off anytime between January 2025 and September 2025.

From all indications so far, the first lap of PROJECT MEJỌ is a success. Far less than the projected 88 protesters were killed nationwide. As expected, Nigerians are no longer as furious or as frustrated as they were before the government-controlled protests of August.

Asiwaju's government is warming up for the second lap of PROJECT MEJỌ in October when a minimum of 8 protesters and a maximum of 88 protesters are projected to be killed in another round of government-controlled protests.

As always, Asiwaju the master-tactician remains 8 steps ahead of any upcoming revolution or coup against his 8 years presidency.

Politics / Sen. Chimaroke Nnamani And IPOB by nigerianrevolut(f): 7:47pm On Mar 15, 2023
Rewind to February 22nd 2023 when unknown gunmen murdered the Labour Party rival of Sen. Chimaroke Nnamani in Enugu state.

Then to March 14th 2023, when Biafrans woke up to see the campaign poster of Sen. Chimaroke Nnamani on Emma Powerful's Facebook wall. Please visit www.facebook.com/EmmaPowerful

Now fast forward to after May 29th 2023 when assuming Sen. Chimaroke Nnamani wins the postponed senatorial election of March 18th 2023, he begins to perfect plans to formally defect to the APC in order to position himself for a juicy leadership role in the senate.

Does Sen. Chimaroke Nnamani have links to IPOB, Emma Powerful and the Biafra project?

Keep your eyes on Sen. Chimaroke Nnamani.
Politics / Why Did Gbadebo Call Yorubas AFONJA? by nigerianrevolut(f): 10:58am On Mar 09, 2023
WHY DID GBADEBO CALL YORUBAS AFONJA?

To answer that question, let's revisit the tweet itself which was posted on 01 June 2021.

If we look at that tweet, we will see that the verified account of Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour was replying to two individuals who were using the handles @strategicbayo and @allibaloo.

In the tweet, we can also see that Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour posted the image of a bleating goat which is putting on a red cap with the signature logo of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu on the cap.

What that tells me is that it is Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, @strategicbayo and @allibaloo that Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour was calling "Afonjaaa!!!"

It is as simple and as straightforward as that.

Trying to extend Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour's playful tweet beyond Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, @strategicbayo and @allibaloo to every Yoruba person on and off Twitter is not only tribalistic and desperate but also wicked.

Lagosians are fed up with the tribalistic, desperate and wicked politics that Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and his party have been playing in Lagos for more than 23 years now. Why is why it is easy to predict that Lagosians will reject APC's politics of desperation, tribalism and wickedness this 2023.

WHO WILL LAGOSIANS VOTE FOR IN 2023?

Please note that this writeup is not my attempt to do damage-control for Gbadebo Patrick Chinedu Rhodes-Vivour the LP gubernatorial candidate in Lagos.

I am neither a member of PDP nor LP. I am simply an average Lagosian who is fed up with the rule of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, his APC, his agberos, his tollgates, his Alpha Beta and his godfatherism in Lagos since 1999.

Indigenous Lagosians are fed up.

Migrant Lagosians are fed up.

Majority of Lagosians are fed up.

It is time to give another party a chance. I would have preferred ADC's Funso Doherty but he and his party stand no chance against the APC. After him, I would have voted for PDP's Abdul-Azeez Olajide Adediran but his party has a very little chance against the APC. Therefore, I am left with no choice but to vote for LP's Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour whose party stands the greatest chance against the APC.

BAT planning to attack Ibos if he loses

An OPC guy from Lagos whom is also an APC faithful reached out to me today, with a vital information. He said that they have been instructed to purchase weapons ahead of the elections. The plan is that if for any reason BAT loses out on the election then they should attack the Ibos in their homes at night and make it look like robbery or riot between gang of touts so as not to attract international attention.

In his words, he said they were asked to kill Ibo men precisely in Lagos if BAT loses the election. This attack will last a week in areas like,
Oshodi - Isolo (Mafoluku area to Oke Afa)
Ijora Badia (Amukoko, Alaba Suru, Orile and environs.
Ikate, Itire, Ijesha, Cele, Okota.
Ajegunle, Olodi Apapa, Coconut.
Ojokoro - Ijaye,
Agbara, Ojo and Okoko
Satellite town and Festac
Mushin, towards Ojuelegba those areas they have more Ibo people.

These attacks will be at night not day time.

He said BAT is ready to sink Nigeria at all cost if he loses.

Also, a former LGA chairman in Lagos said to me yesterday over the phone that what the Ibos will face if BAT loses will remain in the history of Nigeria forever.

He also indicated that meetings and more meetings are going on between the politicians and touts to ensure Ibos do not vote in Lagos at all cost.

The bike riders from Niger republic that has flooded the entire Lagos are now being recruited into Lagos bus garages as thugs ahead of the election against the Ibos and are being paid the sum of N2,000 daily just to ensure they don’t turn down the offer.

Please, please and please make this information known to those who have the ears of the international community.

Politics / IPOB Was Not Designated A Terrorist Group By The UK by nigerianrevolut(f): 11:01am On May 07, 2022
IPOB's DESIGNATION AS A TERRORIST ORGANISATION AND THE SHAME OF A PREJUDICED AND JAUNDICED REPORTING

One of the strangest news I read today was the designation of IPOB as a terrorist group by the UK. It got to my notice as I saw some share it with an unmistakable "I told you" glee. Checking online, as really expected not to miss such development, was virtually all Nigerian media outfits with that news and headline. With all of them screaming the same thing, you are left with the impression that it must be true. Going ahead to read the actual news item, I felt sad; not sad that IPOB was designated a terrorist group by a very notable foreign power, but that virtually all Nigerian media outfits could be sucked into this level of gross disinformation.

This is the line under which they ran to town that the British government has designated IPOB a terrorist organisation: "IPOB is proscribed as a terrorist group by the Nigerian government..."

You would really think there is more than just this until you read their entire articles and find absolutely nothing more. The question to ask is if the UK recognises a group as a terrorist group by the designation of that group as a terrorist group by another country or by her own designation? This is what the UK's terrorism act says:
"The Terrorism Act 2000 defines terrorism, both in and outside of the UK, as the use or threat of one or more of the actions listed below, and where they are designed to influence the government, or an international governmental organisation or to intimidate the public. The use or threat must also be for the purpose of advancing a political, religious, racial or ideological cause.
"The specific actions included are: serious violence against a person; serious damage to property; endangering a person's life (other than that of the person committing the action); creating a serious risk to the health or safety of the public or a section of the public; and action designed to seriously interfere with or seriously to disrupt an electronic system. The use or threat of action, as set out above, which involves the use of firearms or explosives is terrorism regardless of whether or not the action is designed to influence the government or an international governmental organisation or to intimidate the public or a section of the public. Action includes action outside the United Kingdom.
"It is important to note that in order to be convicted of a terrorism offence a person doesn't actually have to commit what could be considered a terrorist attack. Planning, assisting and even collecting information on how to commit terrorist acts are all crimes under British terrorism legislation."

https://www.cps.gov.uk/crime-info/terrorism

So, this same UK government, in her laws on terrorism has this to say more:
"The maximum penalty for the following offences will increase from 10 to 14 years
• Membership of a proscribed organisation
• Supporting a proscribed organisation
• Attending a place used for terrorist training"

https://www.gov.uk/government/news/longer-jail-terms-and-stricter-monitoring-as-new-terror-laws-gain-royal-assent

So, we see clearly that, not only does UK have her proper definition of what terrorism is, and which is not limited to UK soil, she also has prison terms for membership of terror groups, sponsorship of terror groups and being seen where trainings are conducted by such groups. With this, it should become so obvious that, not only would any member of a terrorist group not be welcome in UK, such a person when found in UK is surely on his way to prison. With all these, how then do we reconcile the following from the UK government if indeed they have designated IPOB as a terrorist organisation as Nigerian media houses claim? Read the UK government specifically on IPOB and MASSOB on asylum seeking:

"ASSESSMENT UPDATED: 16 March 2022
1. Introduction
1.1 Basis of claim
1.1.1 Fear of persecution and/or serious harm by state actors because the person is a member or supporter of, or perceived to belong to, a group that supports a separate state of ‘Biafra’.
1.2.3 There are reported to be several groups aiming for the secession of ‘Biafra’. This Country Policy and Information Note (CPIN) focuses on the 2 main groups, which are: the Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of ‘Biafra’ (MASSOB); Indigenous People of ‘Biafra’ (IPOB)
1.2.4 Where a claim is refused, it must be considered for certification under section 94 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002 as Nigeria is listed as a designated state in respect of men only.
1.2.5 For information on certification, see the instruction on Certification of protection and human rights claims under section 94 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002 (clearly unfounded claims).
2.2.3 If a person has been involved with IPOB (and/or an affiliated group), MASSOB or any other ‘Biafran’ group that incites or uses violence to achieve its aims, decision makers must consider whether one (or more) of the exclusion clauses under the Refugee Convention is applicable. Persons who commit human rights violations must not be granted asylum."

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/nigeria-country-policy-and-information-notes/country-policy-and-information-note-separatist-groups-in-the-south-east-nigeria-march-2022-accessible

Are you getting it? Asylum is open to IPOB members! We just read that IPOB and MASSOB members can seek for asylum in UK. However, each application would be treated on individual basis. Any individual that is found to have committed acts that makes him unqualified for asylum would be denied. This is nothing but an official exoneration of the group as a terrorist organisation; if it is not, well, you have to tell me how the UK that imprisons folks for association with terror groups will open up for IPOB to receive asylum in the same UK. This is just the UK saying, "While we recognise that IPOB is not a terror group, we do recognise that her members may commit crimes and we won't allow such ones escape punishment for crimes they commit by an asylum in the UK."

What about this should be causing excitement? That Britain corrected herself from an umbrella provision of asylum to an individual consideration of asylum? Should the tales of "reportedly committed human rights violations in Nigeria" that made them opt for a more cautious approach in reconsidering an umbrella provision of asylum for the group be skewed to mean a designation of terrorists' status for IPOB?

It should be noted that this document on asylum by UK is specifically for issues related to the Biafra agitation. It is not a comprehensive asylum document for all asylum seekers from all countries. So, the portion of the document that read, "EXCLUSION", was simply detailing under what reasons Biafra agitators should be denied asylum. In opening that section, it referenced IPOB's designation as a terrorist organisation by the Nigerian government and MASSOB's ban by the Nigerian government, referenced some articles on Nigerian papers on skirmishes between IPOB and the government and then went on to prescribe an individual-based consideration for members of IPOB or MASSOB seeking asylum rather than the initial umbrella provision the UK government granted the group.

I can't still believe what just happened with this news of UK designating IPOB as a terrorist organisation. Is this severe hatred for the group, IPOB; or hatred for anything Biafra? How come all Nigerian media went for this sort of disinformation? And that some people were gleefully sharing makes it sadder! My take: This is nothing but ignorance at its height or mischief at its depth; or probably a hybrid of the two... mischievorance!
